Here at Weddingsbells, we’re on board with anything love-related and Valentine’s Day has us feeling especially inspired. We wanted to showcase some great ways Valentine’s Day-inspired details can be used at your wedding.

Regardless of whether or not you’ll be exchanging vows on February 14th, the holiday’s signature red and pink colour palette and heart-shaped details are ideal for a wedding day.

You don’t have to go all-out when it comes to including Valentine’s Day details into your celebration. Sometimes less is more, and incorporating just a few sweet details can make your big day look incredibly chic. You can also switch up the colours for a more modern feel.

Whether you are going for a complete Valentine’s Day-themed wedding or looking to add some love-related items to celebration, here are some of the best Valentine’s Day-inspired wedding details around.

This entire tablescape would be oh-so dreamy for Valentine's Day, but we adore the blush pink colour scheme for a wedding as well. A napkin folded into the shape of a heart is a simple but romantic touch for your tablescape.<br />

Chocolate-dipped strawberries are a must on Valentine's Day, but no need to bring them to your sweet table on the day of your nuptials. Instead, put a modern spin on the dessert by serving these chocolate-dipped strawberry popsicles to your guests after the ceremony. On a hot day, these treats will be gone in no time.<br />

For Valentine's Day, red roses are classic so why not incorporate them into your wedding as well?! We love how this real wedding bride opted for a red bouquet and donned a red sash to match!<br />

We think incorporating Valentine's Day candies into your wedding is genius. That's why we had to include these conversation heart doughnuts, which are perfect as favours or to include in your sweet table. The adorable phrases will be sure to stir conversation among your guests.<br />

On Valentine's Day, our idea of an amazing dinner is one by candlelight. Take notes from this real wedding couple, who filled their ceremony with lights and said their I dos as the sun set. It can't get any more romantic than that.<br />

Nothing emphasizes the romance of red roses on a cake more than a white backdrop. This real wedding couple used a darker tone of red to complement their gothic-glam theme. The white-chocolate drip on this cake is a trendy touch.<br />

We love how this real wedding bride made a bold statement with a red wedding dress instead of white. Brides a little less daring can choose softer shades of red or blush pinks.<br />

Macarons are a staple at many weddings, as favours, on a dessert table, or topping a wedding cake. Why not add a Valentine's Day twist to the classic cookie with pink heart-shaped macarons?! <br />
